Montepulciano: Tuscan Dolce Vita
Montepulciano welcomes visitors with views, villas, and vino. Streets are lined with nobel palazzos because Florentine nobility favored Montepulciano as a breezy and relaxed place for a summer residence. Thanks to aristrocratic egos, each palace was built to outdo its neighbor.
